About the Art

Antonio Canova (1757 – 1822) was the most internationally successful and influential sculptor of Neoclassicism. Often influenced by themes from Antiquity, the colossal sculptures and bas-reliefs created by the Italian artist were imbued with idealistic purity. Canova thoroughly studied anatomy, which he called the secret of his art. He also observed the expressions and mannerisms of performers, and familiarized himself with ancient and modern history. He distinguished his works by employing a special method of permeating marble with a soft, mellow appearance. Canova's work was in great demand by luminaries such as Napoleon, Catherine the Great of Russia and the Duke of Wellington.

I noticed when I got this picture in the mail it had a black line going down..from top to bottom starting from the left side of the wing and on down. It kind of looks like the picture was taken in a black box or something. Even the picture framing place I took it too noticed it. Thats my nit pick. Otherwise its a beautiful piece. I think its going to look better in the frame I picked out for it. Definitely a nice piece for an artistic minded person. That about sums it up.
